Cube-Tec FIAF Congress 2025 Review

The Grande Bibliothéque

Enjoy some fresh impressions of the FIAF Congress 2025 in Montreal, a major international gathering of film archivists, restorers and preservationists. The week was filled with insightful presentations, networking, in-depth discussions, highlighting case studies.

For the further development of sustainable archiving practices the professional discourse on new technologies is important. What is possible today especially with AI-driven tools and what are the risks of AI in archiving and the development of long-term access strategies? The responsible use of these powerful AI technologies is crucial in order to avoid sacrificing ethical requirements in archiving to pure rationalization strategies.

Cube-Tec has been rooted in the archive community as a trusted partner for more than 25 years. With a deep understanding of historical processes in the creation and preservation of filmic elements and at the same time with great practical experience with the latest technologies, we are certainly a good partner to help you make your archiving practice fit for the future.

We're returning home with fresh ideas and a renewed sense of purpose. Thanks to FIAF and all the participants for making this such a memorable and meaningful experience. We look forward to what's to come!
